(A short story)
Her beauty was something which was hidden away, they say she was beautiful enough to make a person blind, that's why they hid her from the world, she was her father's 9th child and the only daughter, the world treated her as if she t...
"So many clothes, are you sure you can wear these just by yourself?" exclaimed Ji-Na looking at the bundle of clothes spread on the balcony. Her father sent her gifts from the castle, it had been 4 months since she last saw him, her married life has been wonderful, though they don't get time for each other during the weekdays, they still talk at night or maybe sometimes something else, but the weekends are the best as Jungkook has taken her on several different places around the village.
"I actually asked my father to bring these for you" she spoke passing a box of pieces of jewelry and accessories, with 6 sets of beautiful and expensive dresses to Ji-Na, "The others are for the other family members", while they were talking the three men's entered the house a little surprised by the big mess.
"Father-in-law, brother, Jungkook, wait here I will bring water and something for you guys to eat, you must be exhausted after a long day of work"Hye-Jin spoke after greeting them and left to the kitchen.
"I never thought that the princess of Asia brings me water, heck I didn't even think I would ever even meet the princess of Asia" Jihoon spoke smiling, ever since Hyejin has entered the house, she does a lot of household work without even asking for it, her father sent a cook for her, well they don't where he is because HyeJin sent him back almost the minute he came.
"Jungkook-ah tell her to take a rest sometimes, she does too much work, she doesn't even let me or mom let us touch any work, cooking, farming, and even bathes the animals twice a day" it made Jungkook worried, he knew she does work at home, but he never thought it will be this much, he was scared that she will get sick, he doesn't want that.
"Aah, sister in law, you are worried about me too much, I don't get sick easily, and in the castle, I used to do work more than this, you know with all the sword practice, horse riding, sometimes I used to make food for my family and I have about a hundred family members" HyeJin while bending and keeping water and biscuits in front of them.
Everybody sighed but Jungkooks mind was somewhere else, he was thinking about how much she changed her behavior has been more mature nowadays, no more stubbornness or whining, she becomes comfortable with whatever she does, in the past, she would eat different kinds of food and still would be so picky about it.
She would wear bright and sparkling dresses but now, he turned his face to look at her and just noticed her

Her hair wasn't even braided, no kohl in her eyes, no lip balm, no jewelry, nothing just nothing, it made him think that was he taking enough care of her?
She is his wife, his responsibility yet even he feels guilty looking at her changes, what would the world think? That he treats their Princess like this, all he can give her is his love but is that enough for her?.
(At Night)
"Love, are you serious right now?" he was shocked at her words when he asked her the reason for her change she just said that she wanted to fit in and not let anybody feel like she is looking down on them.
"Honey, it's okay that you feel that way but you are working yourself too much, it is not good for you" she just shook her head and spoke "Jungkook-ah I am not working myself, this is how a normal woman lives like and it feels nice that people feel relaxed and not tire themselves because of me"
"But-" she cut him off by shushing him down and cupped his cheeks slightly caressing them by her thumb "Now my husband, I have been wanting to tell you somet-" she was cut off by a loud door knock.
"Wait I will check" Jungkook sat up and took a lantern and went out to see.
A few minutes went by and it looked like some kind of commotion was taking place, she hurriedly slipped in some normal clothes other than her nighty and went out.
She went out and her eyes widened by the view
There were some people beating Jungkook mercilessly, they were from a kingdom you could tell but nothing came to your mind when you saw that, the other family members were held by the other guards and you hurriedly ran to him before kneeling down.
"Jungkook my love are you okay? are you fine? HEY, YOU HOW DARE YOU TOUCH MY HUSBAND HUH?"HyeJin screamed at all the guards but they didn't pay much heed, all of them were just standing with their heads hung low, you made Jungkook stand up which was painful but he did, and as soon as he did
They stabbed him with a sword, well at least they tried but before they could you came in middle and got stabbed instead
"HYEJIN-AHH" Jungkook screamed in agony, he saw how your knees went weak and you crouched on the ground before speaking these golden words he wanted to hear
"I-I a-am p-p-pr-e-gnant my lo-v-ve" she whispered as she held onto him for the last time, Jungkook couldn't believe his ears.
Her eyes closed as she attached their lips together for the last time, Jungkook couldn't bare the thought of her death so he did what was right
His hands went back to the grip of the sword and the sword came through him right in the stomach, "I love you, my queen"
The hidden princess and the nobody, who died together for their love.
